What’s the difference between UHMWPE plate and PTFE plate?
UHMWPE plate and PTFE plate are currently the two most widely used non-metallic plastics on the market. The common features of both are engineering plastic plates with corrosion resistance, self-lubrication and low friction coefficient. The different characteristics show that UHMWPE plate is more...Read more -
Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene
Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE, UHMW) is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. Also known as high-modulus polyethylene, (HMPE), it has extremely long chains, with a molecular mass usually between 3.5 and 7.5 million amu.The longer chain serves to transfer load more effecti...Read more -
UHMWPE Definition and Comments
Definition UHMWPE is the acronym of Ultra High Molecular Weight PolyEthylene UHMWPE is a linear, low-pressure, Ziegler-type-catalyst, polyethylene resin. Comments UHMWPE has an extremely weight-average molecular weight, approximately ten times that of high molecular weight, High density po...Read more -
What is Ultra-High Molecular-Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)
Polyethylene is the most commonly used plastic in the world, but how do you know if it’s the right yarn for your application? Consider the attributes of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) – a very tough subset of polyethylene that has a strength to weight ratio 8-15 times gre...Read more -
UHMW-PE Roller Features & Application
UHMWPE is a linear polyethylene with a molecular weight more than 3 million. It is an outstanding plastic with the best self lubrication, impact absorbing properties and the highest resistance to abrasion, impact, chemicals of any thermoplastics polymer. It is regarded as an amazing material, and...Read more -
UHMWPE Extrusion Rods
This engineering plastic can be machined into virtually anything, from small (low load)gears and bearings to huge sprockets-shapes that until recently were only possible with metals. It not only outperforms metal in abrasion applications, it’s also easier to machine and therefore cheaper. T...Read more
